Low level packet loss.

For the last 2-3 days I've been seeing low level packet loss almost 24/7 but worsening each evening. This is after about 3 weeks of good results with no packet loss at all.My TBB results still show normal results for me at around 37Mbps down and 7.3Mbps up with around 15ms latency except that the single threaded result is lower and more erratic than the multi-threaded one.It's not causing a problem at the moment - just hope that it's not going to be the top of a 'slippery slope'. Seems like just when things are going well problems start all over again or am I just being unnecessarily pessimistic?

Re: Low level packet loss.

Never been able to put my finger on cause/s. In the past I've gateway hopped to get off the 'bng' ones but this time I've stuck with ptw-bng01 for "26 days 01:49:45" according to my router log and it's been fine, but now the TBB quality monitor is showing packet loss which I've not seen for quite a while.

Re: Low level packet loss.

Looking at your graph, the PPP drop resulted in a slight latency increase. I was wondering if that's related to the gateway you're connected to (and the routing) or your connection to the DSLAM. Need to see if the packet loss returns though first.

Looks as if it has made a difference - http://www.thinkbroadband.com/speedtest/results.html?id=143056866205953371040 - nice straight lines on speed test but latency is up to 20ms not that that makes much difference to me. I'll see what the next 24 hrs shows.p.s. bit of an overlap of posts therep.p.s. 8hrs after hopping and it certainly looks as if it was a gateway problem - no more red up to now
